- Propose renaming Category:Azines (hydrazine derivatives) to Category:Azines
- Propose renaming Category:Azines to Category:Azines (heterocycles)
- Nominator's rationale: Categories should match the respective main articles, Azine and Azine (heterocycle), but I cannot rule out that it is the articles that should be renamed, and if so, to what. – LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄) 03:09, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
- Rename Both as nominated. We should follow the subject expertise of the editors from the main articles and if those are ever changed, we can update these categories again. - RevelationDirect ( talk) 02:05, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep the first, Rename the second as nominated, and create a category disambiguation page at Category:Azines. Categories are often disambiguated even where an article is considered WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. There is much less content for the first one here, so I do not think it would work well to move it to the unqualified name. – Fayenatic London 21:01, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

- Parenthetical for both, with DAB at main name per Fayenatic. It's actually codified in
WP:CATNAME#General conventions: "
When an article topic requires disambiguation, any category eponymously named for that topic should include the same form of disambiguation, even if no other articles are likely to have an eponymous category.
" DMacks ( talk) 03:28, 13 August 2022 (UTC) - Keep the first, rename the second as nominated, and create a category disambiguation page at Category:Azines. Both categories should contain a disambiguator, otherwise the risk of confusion is too big. Marcocapelle ( talk) 05:11, 13 August 2022 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: Delete per WP:NONDEF as not defining for a work. All the works listed here are defined by something else, such as being about aliens or monsters. Note that this is not suggesting to delete the subcategory Category:Cannibalism in fiction, which can be defining. However, Category:Fictional anthropophages may also be deleted as WP:NONDEF. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 12:27, 4 August 2022 (UTC)

- @ Laurel Lodged: Yes, but the idea of "fiction about creatures" is entirely a Wikipedia construct. Still, you may have a point - it's possible that Category:Fiction about creatures should also be upmerged to Category:Animals in popular culture. Either way, my argument stands. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 14:53, 4 August 2022 (UTC)

- There is no restriction that subcategories have to match the names of their parent categories if it is decided they don't. This is a special case that doesn't correspond to the parent category. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 15:32, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
